rec.woodworking address

I got a new computer with a new server and It seems I can't find out
what the address is to get on rec.woodworking. Does anyone have any
suggestions?

Take your computer back the store and get a refund.

Hi Joe,

My ISP does have the Wreck on its subscription list, but it's pretty
erratic, and misses a lot of posts.

I recently opened an account with teranews.com, a dedicated ng hosting
operation. Around 4USD one-off payment. On teranews, I see 115,000 posts
as opposed to the 5000 or so I saw with BT.

OTOH, the teranews server is ssllooww, so I tend to mix and match between
the two - BT if I want speed, but if I can see that there are posts missing,
I can go to teranews to fill them in.

Cheers

Frank

Your new server may not have the wRECk in its subscription base.

Since you have posted, then your newsreader already knows the
newsgroup reader host name. There is no specific hostname to a
particular newsgroup--you just need the server name which your ISP
will provide. Some ISPs require a username and password, and some
ISPs do a lousy job with Usenet. I've kept AT&T as an ISP for years
with very few complaints. Another option is buying separate Usenet
service, sometimes necessary with scaled-down Internet service
providers.
